Where on God’s green earth was Twin Eagles, Montana?
The father of Hannah O’Halloran’s baby is in prison for murder, and life on the streets of 1901 Chicago is degradation. Hannah, with nowhere to turn, answers an ad for a housekeeper in a Montana logging camp in the wilderness north of Twin Eagles. Wounded by the betrayal of her first love, she vows never to marry. Old Jake Pelham, owner of the camp, gives Hannah the opportunity to use abilities beyond housekeeping. Together they determine to build a Pelham City in the wilderness. In spite of floods and fires, lost loves and personal loneliness, Hannah works to fulfill this dream, devoting her life to helping Jake and raising her son. After fifteen years, Hannah finds love with a feckless railroad man, Mike Flaherty. She chooses duty over love and marriage. When Jake dies and her son deserts her, she abandons everything she’d worked for and leaves Pelham City to find a new life for herself. Will it include Mike?
